The quest for immortality drives Gilgamesh, who, still grieving for Enkidu, faces numerous challenges, including fierce beasts and treacherous landscapes. His journey leads him to Utnapishtim, the sole keeper of the immortality secret, who tests Gilgamesh's resolve. Ultimately, a flower symbolizing eternal youth is lost to Ishtar's vengeance. In the end, Enkidu reveals that true immortality lies in the legacy of one's actions and the love for one's people, emphasizing the enduring impact of deeds over the pursuit of eternal life.
